Can you look at the code for the B/i/u buttons and extrapolate how to get the S one done perhaps?
That would be my instinct, but I don't see that code anywhere - I put the new stuff into a section for additions, and my guess is that the B,I,U and other features are all unchangeable/unseeable to me.

time to update spambot control for these forums

Post by gtmtnbiker »

I noticed that the D_ath of the CD-R topic seems to attract alot of spambots probably due to the word "d_ath" in the topic. I don't think the spambot filter for new accounts registration has been updated in years. Should it be updated? What about using a captcha instead of the 2 numbers addition?

Its the word in the OP Title, I PMed kingmohd84 to maybe rename it.
Spambots keep appearing, I think it is because of the OP title with the word D*ath. Maybe remove that word, rename the OP Title to something like No more CD-R?

No idea, maybe the site linked there is doing the Spyware search?

Possibly meta tags? Just spit balling here, but if there are also text tags on the site it could increase spam. Usually it's keywords, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone couldn't hide code in simple html text.

I actually thought the spam here was going down.
